Between 100 and 200 protesters have arrived and are now facing the Embassy. I can't quite make out their cause because the signs are blocked by the trees. The topic has something to do with gas, oil, and corn.
An employees thinks the protest is about the cost of tortillas, which has been a contentious issue. The gathering is passionately loud and energetic.
